Does the CWB have the right to spend money like this?

In my area wheat is moving very briskly, HRSW and HWSW. But the concern to me is that the majority of the wheat moving out is all #3 with 12- 14% protien. Very little, if any, #2 or #1 wheat moving at all. This sends a very clear mesage to me and alot of producers I talk to. The CWB has no sales for the top grades of wheat because buyers are getting excellent wheat with high falling numbers for alot less money than they have to pay for the top grades.
The majority of the wheat shipments out of this area are based on falling numbers and that is it.

Are you absolutly sure the grain is being shipped as #3 or has the grain company upgraded it to a #2 and with protien and pocketing you money?

Who realy knows??? It could be sold at port as a #2 based on falling numbers.
I guess the question is, are we getting ripped off, or is the world market sending us a signal? That being, yes we can make same flour out of #3 wheat but at much lower cost than #1. Remember one thing, half of the can hardly pay attention, let alone pay the so called "premiums" on our high quality wheat.

It looks like they are finally going to move some HRSW out of here. Supposed to be another train next week. Durum and HRSW this time-- 1 car of HRSW high protein and the rest durum.
